Ex On The Beach’s Chanelle McCleary slams Zahida Allen’s ‘racism’ accusations as ‘ridiculous’ and insists her co-star only said it for revenge

EX On The Beach star Chanelle McCleary has hit back at her co-star Zahida Allen’s claims that she is a racist.

Speaking to exclusively to The Sun Online, the show’s latest arrival Chanelle branded her accusations as “insulting and demeaning”.

Zahida made a number of allegations against Chanelle in a now deleted Instagram rant on Thursday night.

She alleged Chanelle called her a “crusty naan bread” before insisting she was a “racist”.

The 24-year-old also claimed that was “attacked” by Chanelle while they were filming Ex On The Beach.

However former Take Me Out beauty Chanelle has denied the allegations made against her.

Chanelle told The Sun Online: “Coming from mixed nationality myself I find it both insulting and demeaning of her to play the racist card.

“I am very proud of my background and would never try and disrespect any other culture or race.

“Zahida has taken something that was said in a sentence out of context and has chosen to now bring this up as an easy way to play the victim.

“I will not be responding nor entertaining such ridiculous allegations and the fact I’ve been called a racist is laughable and ridiculous.”

“Zahida’s accusation came after I said she had cheated on her boyfriend Sean Pratt while filming Geordie Shore.

The Sun Online has contacted Zahida’s representatives for comment.
